Eons Badges

You don't have to spend much time on Eons to realize that some members have clearly caught the spirit of what Eons is all about. It could be the group manager who responds to every member's message with a word of encouragement. A blogger who puts into words what you yourself have longed to say. A member whose Profile or LifePath is so detailed that you feel you could sit down to coffee or tea with them.

Now there's a way to recognize these members for their outstanding contributions to the Eons community, through the presentation of Eons Badges. We've started with 10 (see below) and you, as a member, can nominate fellow Eons members for two of them.

Some of the badges offered through Eons include:

  • Friendship

    The Friendship badge is given to you by other members of the Eons community who acknowledge you for being an exceptional source of fun and support.

  • Humor

    The Humor badge is awarded by other Eons members who appreciate you for being funny and for keeping the community lively and fresh.

  • Story Teller

    The Story Teller badge recognizes you for sharing your life story fully on your LifeMap, and in the process, inspiring others to do the same.

  • Dreamer

    The Dreamer badge expresses appreciation for the splendid list of LifeDreams you have shared on Eons. You're reaching for the biggest life possible, and the Eons community is watching and cheering you on.

  • High Profile

    The High Profile badge acknowledges you for creating a profile that richly expresses who you are, and in the process, shows others how to express themselves.

  • Tribute

    The Tribute badge honors you for creating a lasting tribute on Eons in member of someone who has passed away, and for sharing that person's life with the Eons community.

  • Participant

    The Participant badge is awarded to Eons members who get involved in Eons groups with people who share their interests.

  • Blogger

    The Blogger badge recognizes you for writing blogs, posting them frequently, and sparking participation among other Eons members and visitors.

  • Pioneer

    The Pioneer badge honors you for being part of Eons from the early days. You have consistently helped build this great online community of people 50-plus. Thank you!

  • Member Appreciation

    The Member Appreciation badges are awarded at various stages to recognize the length of time you have been an active member of the Eons community.

New badges will be added periodically. So, check back often.

Know someone who deserves a badge?

Is there an Eons member you think deserves a badge? Nominate them. Just go to the member's profile page and click on the "Nominate" link and fill in the form.

Once you nominate someone, that member will receive an email telling them of your nomination. It will take several nominations, from different members, before the member will receive the Friendship or Humor badge. But the email alert will be a great encouragement to the member in the meantime.
